Thank you, Carol. These are cheetah cubs at the National (Smithsonian) Zoo in Washington, D.C. #10291766

nothing. I was able to catch several images with this juxtaposition, so I had the chance to pick the best one.

I think I've also noticed that animals must be able hear the focusing motor on my lenses, or maybe see the focusing lights. They seem to react, usually negatively, when I'm trying to photograph them. Mike was able to get a really dramatic shot of cheetah reacting to my trying to photograph him a couple of years ago. #10304686
